Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on February 10, 1947)

Happy Birthday, Chris Ethridge! May your day be filled with more rhythm than a Flying Burrito Brothers reunion and smoother grooves than those legendary bass lines you've laid down. From pioneering country rock to jamming alongside Nancy Sinatra, you've always kept the music—and our toes—tapping.

Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as that unforgettable moment when audiences first heard your iconic riffs. Keep rocking (and rolling) through life; after all, age is just another number on the fretboard of greatness. Cheers to many more years of timeless tunes and endless encores—you've earned them!
